B. Skills Matrix Management

Maintenance & Tracking: Design, implement, and maintain up-to-date skills and multi-skilling matrices across all departments and production lines.
Dynamically identify skill gaps at the individual, team, and organizational levels.
Operational Flexibility: Partner with production supervisors to ensure critical skills coverage and job rotation, thereby supporting plant operational agility and resilience.

C. Employee Retention & Engagement

Retention Strategies: Design and implement retention initiatives aimed at reducing turnover and increasing engagement, particularly for critical roles and young talents.
Conduct regular feedback sessions, pulse checks, and 'exit/stay interviews' to identify drivers of satisfaction and areas for improvement.
Engagement Actions: Collaborate with management to foster an inclusive, motivating work environment and drive recognition programs within the plant.

D. Development Goals & Growth Planning

Performance & Career Development: Facilitate the setting of individual development goals (growth KPIs, career paths) aligned with the plant's strategic objectives.
Design and facilitate internal training sessions, workshops on leadership, efficiency, and personal growth.
Impact Measurement: Track progress against set development goals, measure the effectiveness of training and retention programs, and continuously optimize them based on data and feedback.

This is how you'll win us over:

Education: University degree in Human Resources, Management, Psychology, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.
Experience: Minimum 2–3 years of experience in a similar role (e.g., HR Generalist, L&D Specialist, Talent Acquisition, or Project Management within an industrial/manufacturing environment).
Skills & Competencies: Excellent communication, networking, and stakeholder management skills.
Proven ability to build relationships with academic and external institutional environments.
Strong analytical mindset (for managing skill matrices, retention metrics, and KPIs).
A true growth mindset: proactive, resilient, and results oriented.
Languages: Romanian (advanced/native).
English (advanced, written and spoken). German is considered a strong plus.

What do we offer:

In addition to exciting work opportunities in a brand-new, state-of-the-art engineering environment, we place special emphasis on a healthy work-life balance; continuous learning and development of our employees is important to us - we believe this is key to our success.
